ANALYSIS: A borderline top-25 caliber adversary, San Diego State will likely be a stiff test for any team in Division I. Ranked 30th overall (out of 351) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 22-11. Of the 11 schools in the MWC (average ranking 114.7), they're currently ranked as our #2 team in the conference.
San Diego State is one of the most menacing defensive teams in the country. Ranked 21st in defensive efficiency, they will allow fewer than 93 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. San Diego State does an outstanding job shutting down the opposition from behind the arc. They rank 23rd in the NCAA in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make just 31.9% of their attempts from afar. San Diego State also does a super job to deny opponents offensive rebounds and second chances. They have a rating of 12.12 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (ranked 24th in the country).
San Diego State plays at about the same level on offense as they do on defense. The team ranks 58th nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 109 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. San Diego State has a keen ability to drain field goals between the three-point line and the low post. The squad is ranked 28th nationally in mid-range field goal percentage, making about 41.5% of their attempts from those locations vs. AO. The team will take a fair amount of shots from those in-between locations, too. Approximately 31.3% of their attempts vs. AO are of the mid-range variety, which puts the team in the top-100 in that category nationally. San Diego State also acquires a fair amount of chances from the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of 28.72 vs. AO, they are ranked 62nd in the nation at getting to the charity stripe, where the team shoots a rather mediocre 72.6%.
San Diego State has been playing some of its most efficient basketball of the season recently and is presently ranked 11th in positive momentum. San Diego State has also been one of the more erratic teams in NCAA basketball this year (presently ranked 308th in the country in consistency), which makes forecasting the outcomes of their upcoming games tougher than most. When playing on the road, San Diego State performs somewhat worse than they normally do on their home court. The club is nationally ranked 324th in our site's away-from-home metric.
